Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: The identity of English education students is a comprehensive reflection of their cognition, emotions, and behaviors towards the English language education field and the profession of English teaching. To comprehend and assess the level of identity among English education students in the western region of China, a survey was conducted among 275 undergraduates majoring in English language education at S Normal University. The results indicated that the overall level of identity among English education students at S Normal University was relatively high, but there was still room for improvement. Factors such as gender and academic year had a significant impact on the level of identity, while factors like hometown, choice of major, and family structure had less significant effects. Strategies to enhance the level of identity among English education students include improving identity recognition, enhancing active engagement, boosting learning motivation, and solidifying the intention to pursue a teaching career.
